A very slow-moving area of low pressure will continue to approach the region through the weekend. Some showers or storms are possible later today, but it appears the rain will really settle in from later tonight into the weekend.

The bottom line is we will have periods of rain, and maybe a few storms, throughout the weekend. Rain totals will add up, and anybody in the region is fair game to pick up 1-3" of rain with locally higher amounts. Some flooding issues could crop up in some areas, and that potential will need to be monitored throughout the weekend.

Monday could still be pretty wet for portions of the region, but a much drier setup will arrive toward the middle of next week.
